CEO Dave Limp today unveiled GS3, a third stage that significantly expands New Glenn’s ability to deliver high-energy and deep-space missions, and Northstar, a new booster engine. Read more --> blueorigin.com/news

We announced New Glenn’s third stage today (GS3). The team recently completed testing of what we expect will be the largest composite LH2 tank ever flown in space. The tank was pressurized (at cryo temps) above 100% of the Maximum Expected Operating Pressure (MEOP) for flight and cycled 10 times (totaling over 2.5 hours) and over 10 minutes at 150% MEOP. GS3 stands 37 feet tall and is housed in an interstage, preserving the full fairing volume for customer payloads.

Our new booster engine, Northstar, was built from the ground up by a scrappy team focused on weight, cost, manufacturability, and performance. More than 65% of the engine is additively manufactured using our in-house 3D printing capability. Northstar can be assembled in less than a day and produces 715,000 pounds of thrust.
